any interest in a ma/ri fall run gathering? maybe a beach somewhere where we can fish, cook, fish, drink, fish, and have fun. fishing doesn't have to be off the charts but some action would be nice. maybe a food thread to go with it. i know it will be tough to agree on a date & spot but thought it would be worth a try.

I'm in.

Ok

Date: Oct 19th, Saturday
Location: TBD, suggestion would be Weakapaug Bait and Tackle if owner allows the use of the property. Someone that knows the owner will need to ask permission.

Im interested in a get together for sure. It would be nice to see the folks i haven't seen since the Incident at TFCTFN a couple years ago.

SB legs used to happen every year. One would be at M&Ds. One in Rhody, and maybe one on the North Shore. C&R on the honor system.

Of course I will be there.

looks like we'll be swapping back yards.

It's a friggin huge deck with no secret spots, open to all vehicles, fires, beer, food and fishing/checking out each others set ups. I can't think of a better spot to do all of the above. Maybe under the power lines? There have been some ragers there lately?

don't know why I didn't think of there. it's perfect for what I had in mind.

I am in....South Shore is a perfect place.

I'm planning for 10/19/13 ss beach little compton. set up around 3 for the meet and greet. Bring your families and or whoever wants to come hang out. you can bring grills or open fire here it's pretty cool. Moon high tide is around 8:30pm so we have a couple of ours of incoming tide and plenty of time to have fun and put some more faces to these names before hitting the surf. If there are those who can't make the date/place maybe we can get another one going somewhere closer to another group as well. I like the idea (of times past)of staggered leg gatherings as some might be able to travel to all. that would be awesome. start in the north and follow them south! I look forward to meeting all who can make it.

I'm in. Ill start off with the family.

To anyone that is a member or especially a lurker ( as i have become). U r cheating yourself if u dont show up.
I have made some of my best life long friends ( ie people i talk to on a regular basis about other than fishing) as either a direct result of this site or the legs. I have fond memories of my first bashful attendence to the one at weekapaug.
South shore beAch in LC is a perfect location as it is smack dab in between gooseberry and sakonnet point. Plenty of varied places to fish wether it be chunkin, wading, or swimming near by as well as river. It is right next to a herring run that should have bait coming out. A side note is a 50 was takin there this year. Romantic sun set and we can have open fires so if fishin sucks we can always resort to "Plan B".
Honestly as i said if u r a member or especialy a lurker here, u should make every opprtunity to go as u r missing out on a great opprtunity to actually meet the people u interact with in cyberspace; talk, eat, learn , and even better teach poeple something.
I will be there
I will bring a truck load of wood for a fire
I miss the legs
Dont be shy
Dont be bashful
Just come and enjoy

October 19 - that Saturday is the MS Tourney, which S-B plans to fish. It would be great to get an old school effort for that tourney.

As the fishing area is limited from Napatree Point to Narrow River, RI, any get together that weekend should be down that way so we can fish the Tourney.

Jones - good ideas - that date is tough & conflicts with the MS Tourney

Scary reading this...I know things are different down there in farm country but didn't realize it went this far.

:laughs:

I hope I can make it but I'm working weekends now so we'll see

I CAN'T AFFORD TO FISH THE MS TOURNEY NOR CAN I PULL OF A THREE DAY BENDER AROUND THAT TIME THIS YEAR UNFORTUNATELY. I AM HOPING TO DRIVE DOWN TO RI FOR THE FINAL WEIGH IN ON SUNDAY IF I CAN PULL IT OFF. I UNDERSTAND THAT MOST WILL BE UNABLE TO ATTEND DUE TO THE TOURNEY BUT ANYONE NOT FISHING MS IS WELCOME. THIS WILL BE THE 1ST OF MANY GATHERINGS IF IT GOES WELL. LIKE I SAID I WOULD LOVE TO SEE IF NEXT SEASON WE CAN PLAN ON CHASING FISH FROM THE NORTH TO THE SOUTH. MAYBE EVERY OTHER WEEKEND? MA, RI, CT, NY, & NJ SEPT THROUGH OCT. PROBABLY A PIPE DREAM BUT WORTH A SHOT. JUST SOMETHING I'VE WANTED TO DO.OR EACH YEAR A NEW AREA

No charge for the Tourney - S-B pays ;) - money raised goes to MS ;)

anyone have any white shoe polish?
Funny, I probably have the most comprehensive shine kit on the site and don't think I have white :rotf2:

-spence

$75 per person..... wow... now i feel real bad because the most i have donated is food. i love checking into s-b avery day and had the privelage of attending the tfctf party this past go around allowed me mto put some faces to these names..this year I'm gonna stick to my date for who ever can make it but hope next year we can start this thread earlier and make something happen. really looking forward to meeting new friends.

$75 per TEAM ;)

Plus there is an optional raffle/breakfast on Sunday. The proceeds go to support MS

Sorry Guys but I have to bail on this one,my son's college is having a "Family weekend" at his school and the Boss Lady wants us to attend...
I am still willing to make the chowda, bring bowls,spoons,oyster crackers and a table if Mike or Jay are willing to bring it for me.

O and also the fire extinguisher if needed:hihi:

Much more detail is needed. Can you actually have a bunch of out of town fisherman swoop down anywhere in LC , lighting fires and parking at beaches without getting acquainted with LC's finest? If so times have sure changed.

The MS Tourney IN So Co?? Is it still headquartered at the Andrea? The Sunday breakfast? Friday through Sunday? Its one thing to be vague about old stories but if people are actually coming its nice to cover the hairy details.

Never a problem there. Jeff post another who is in? thread with specifics. It's on you at this point to make it happen for us that will attend.

My we are all getting older. When I started this site, my son wasn't born, he's about as tall as half of you now.

It is scary,when I joined the site my son was only five y/o and now he's eighteen.:confused:

Not to high jack this tread and this has been mentioned on another thread but,John you've created a great site,this site has a solid group of guys that I've fished,partied,worked for/with and had a ton of laughs thanks for the good times:buds:



Thanks John.

Thanks John.

Well said. I spend more time fishing with people from this site than I spend hanging out with friends who aren't on the site. I've met lots of people I now consider good friends through this site.

I think part of what has changed, besides all the other social media sites people are now on, is the lack of new members who regularly contribute. Maybe it's the perception that we're not very welcoming or it's too clique for them? I don't know, but when I joined way back when, I was a lurker for a long time. Then I realized that there were a lot of good discussions that welcomed differing opinions without it getting too nasty. That made it easier for me to jump in and contribute.

That being said, I really only come on the site to look at Kate Upton pictures anyways.

The interesting part is a common consensus is that "it doesnt get nasty" for the most part here. I think this is because the (sometimes despised) moderaters try to keep the "nasties" and "uglies" at bay while trying to allow for open discussion and allow everyone their opinions. Its not always an easy task and some people are rubbed the wrong way when they get edited. I think by keeping the "family friendly" ideal (with some grey areas from time to time :love:) this site has manged to keep its members and has not turned into a complete poop show. I know I will likely catch some flack for the mere mention of it but it is some food for thought. I have other forums I visit for my other hobbies and seen the "wild west" where anything goes and the bantering DOES get ugly and often so rediculous it becomes more of a monkey pen than a place to get and share information with like minded people.
